Re: Does flashing the radio change the amount of radiation the phone emits?

I'm a Biologist. I can say with certainty that the risk you're putting yourself through with the phone is far less than those big macs you cram down your throat. The people who get behind this cause are the same nutjobs that think vaccines are bad. The main "problem" proposed is with Dielectric heating. The radiation the phone emits basically heats living tissue a fraction of a degree. This is much less than when exposed to sunlight. If this was a problem we'd all shrivel up and die when we walked outside.

Most of the studies that claim there are problems use Sar values of 100+ times what a phone emits. It's a very casual relationship at that.

All the people who yelled "cancer" were proved wrong a while ago.
